This is a very common question and the more detail we have the better we can help of course. But here a few ways to get started that work for almost any situation.

The more you know, the better educated you are, the easier it will be for you to spot what methods work and what not. So start with reading everything you can find. Start with our Science of Learning:
ntls.co/the-science-of-learning
; then go on and read everything in our other sections. Especially the Home Schooling
ntls.co/home-schooling
and Behavioral Therapies Sections
ntls.co/behavioral-therapies
; if you are a teacher also check out the Movement Method section
ntls.co/movement-method
and if you have a background in horses also check the Equine Therapy section
ntls.co/equine-therapy
<br/> after that move on to our research section and the blog which both have a lot of information on helping your child.

We also strongly suggest you check out our Movement Method 1 & 2 Online Certification course as that will give you a lot of information how to work with your children, how to know if a person working with your child is right for your child, and more. You can find the course here:
ntls.co/movement-method/movement-method-...ication-course-final

Once you have taken the course we can talk in more detail on what next steps to take. This could be: going for an intensive family week to one of our Practitioners or Mentors, it could be that you would like for one of our trainers to come to you and train people that are working with your children or it could be that we can just guide you into the right direction through advice here in the forum or via email. All that depends on your personal situation.

The most important thing is that you continue with what you have done! Ask for help and ask as many questions until you feel you know what you do, and why, and what your road-map for your children and family is!

Horse Boy Method and Movement Method are not intended or offered as a cure for autism. Ameliorative effects may or may not occur.

Subsequently numerous university studies have been done and suggest a positive effect and the Methods are endorsed by neuro scientists. There is no guarantee of outcome.

By participating in a Horse Boy Method or Movement Method sessions, playdates, camps or training or applying them at home you accept full personal responsibility for any injury or death that can follow any equine activity.

Just as a reminder… Horse Boy Method Training is an introduction into the methods including but not limited to back-riding. We do NOT suggest that you go home and start back-riding with children. Practice, practice, practice! Seek professional advice from your trainers to deepen your skills as a rider and horseman/woman. Take lessons! Again, after the training you are probably NOT ready to ride with a child. Practice until you, your horses and your property are ready for back-riding!
